PAT booster

Hello,

I am currently studying for the DAT which I am scheduled to taken in June. I am using DAT destroyer and plan on using DAT bootcamp later on since it has a short subscription period. Would anyone be able to tell me about their experience using PAT booster?

I would like some comments on how PAT booster is as well.

I would highly recommend it. I scored a 25 PAT on my DAT last week thanks to PATBooster. I thought their generators were super helpful, they helped me go from scoring 17-18 to scoring 22+ consistently. I started off by practicing under Medium settings on the generators and than slowly increased the settings to Hard once I could consistently score 90%+. Their practice tests were also very representative to what I saw on my DAT (even more so than DATBootcamp's practice tests in my opinion).

I'll be writing up a breakdown soon and i'll expand on everything there. Inbox me if you have any questions.

thank you so much, I plan on purchasing the subscription.

Islanddrive, I am unable to message you (i.e. start a conversation). Could you remedy this since you are offering to answers any questions we have?

@WithLove who scored a 27PAT had the following to say about it

2. PATBooster (10/10): After using this for months, I have to say this is hands-down the best resource for the PAT (yes even better than bootcamps). I LOVED PATBooster, more people need to know about it. Their generators and tests gave me detailed feedback about the amount of time I spent on each question and feedback on how to improve. And over time, it tracked my progress for each section of the PAT that I completed and told me where to focus on. My only regret was that I found out about this resource mid-way during my preparation but nevertheless I'm happy I did. And the difficulty level was a bit higher compared to Bootcamp so it made me realize that there was still a lot to learn. Compared to the real DAT, I would say the difficulty level was very similar for all the sections. This is a must have for the PAT.

I just messaged you. 🙂

For those that have used PAT booster, does anybody understand the way that it is scored? I am trying not to get wrapped up in practice scores, but I am also trying to be realistic and informed. I am confused because today I took practice test 4 and found it very difficult. In fact, it was my worst score. I got a 72/90. However, it was the same estimated score of 24 as Test 3 where I got a 77/90. I was just wondering if anyone else understood why this was. Was this test just much more difficult? I felt really discouraged during the test so I am just trying to understand better.

I think that test was just more difficult. To my understanding each test has a different scale based on its difficulty level. It's very similar to what you will have on the real DAT.

Hey, I would be interested in hearing more about how you studied overall/for each section. I saw you mention something about posting a breakdown, not sure if you did that yet but I also can't message you. Let me know if you have a chance!

Hey sorry, I was busy the last few weeks with midterms and research but i'll try to post a breakdown soon. I used the first few months going over the DATDestroyer and PATBooster content before I purchased my DATbootcamp subscription so that I can maximize my time. I didn't use everything on Bootcamp though since I didn't feel it was necessary. This is what I got on my DAT and this is what I mainly used for each section:

Biology (scored: 23) - Feralis notes and the purple kaplan book
Chemistry (scored: 26) - Chad's videos + DATDestroyer + Bootcamp practice tests
Orgo (scored: 25) - Mike's videos + DATDestroyer + Bootcamp practice tests
PAT (scored: 25) - PATBooster
Reading Comp (scored: 17) - DATBootcamp
QR (scored: 22) - Math Destroyer + Orgoman videos on youtube
Total AA: 23

Orgoman videos on youtube? I did not know they had them. Is this new?

Our free videos are relatively new, began August of 2017.

I wish I knew about them, I didn't see them on the youtube page. Is there a link to them? 🙁

I am not sure if I am allowed to but the link up for our videos, but you can search Orgoman youtube videos and you will find them.

Congratulations!! Would you recommend redoing the PATBooster or DATBootcamp practice tests if I finished all of the practice tests on both sites? My DAT is around the corner and I'm not sure which one should I be focusing on? Is the PAT on the real DAT more like Booster or Bootcamp? Thanks

Hey from what I have read, I would use PATBooster for PAT and do everything again on Bootcamp. Let us know how you do on the DAT and good luck!
